Description:
 Westley Richards 10 gauge shotgun side-by-side. Was converted from pinfire to center fire by Westley Richards many years ago. The gentleman who owns this gun said his parents bought it possibly from the Roosevelts in Hyde Park New York. I can neither confirm nor deny the accuracy of that statement. There is some bluing on the bottom portion of the two barrels  that has been removed possibly from gasoline when they went out duck hunting in a boat with an engine? There is a small sliver of wood missing on the forearm, but it is worn smooth and rounded to the point that you almost don’t notice it. I can find nothing else wrong with this gun, I even have a factory letter stating when it was made and a photocopy of the original book it was logged into by Wesley Richards company Ltd.  Please look at all the photos, if you have any questions don’t hesitate to send an email or call, thank you so much for looking at this truly unique, beautiful and elegant side by side with hammers English shotgun.
